Abstract: A high security anti-splash cuffing box system is provided for enabling articles to pass through the access opening of a high security door or wall and for the safe hand cuffing of prisoners or detainees by personnel outside the cell. The system embodies a door frame assembly providing a sliding door movable between a locked engagement and an unlocked disengagement in a closed and an open condition relative to the access opening, while providing anti-slam functionality. A cuffing box providing an enclosure with 280-degree visibility is detachably connectable and securely engageable to the door frame assembly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a ballistic shade system which provides a means for rolling up and down ballistic material and holding it in place during a ballistic event.

Abstract: A composite armor 10 and method for making it. The armor 10 has a honeycomb core 12 that is provided with polygonal openings 14 and oppositely facing sides 16, 18. Inserts 20 are placed within at least some of the openings. A pair of sheets 22, 24 are respectively secured to the oppositely facing sides of the honeycomb core to close the openings, thereby containing fracture debris after impact, and to provide reinforcement. One method of making the composite armor includes: providing a honeycomb core having polygonal openings; adhering a sheet to cover the polygonal openings that are located on one side of the honeycomb core; at least partially filling at least some of the openings with a resin; placing one or more inserts within at least some of the openings; and adhering a front sheet to the oppositely facing side of the honeycomb core. A preferred manufacturing practice involves resin infusion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a goods transfer station (1) for discharging articles (4, 5), having at least one delivery window (12), at least one conveying space (19, 20, 21, 22, 30, 31) and at least one closing element (23, 24, 25, 26, 32, 33), it being the case that the conveying space has at least one opening (9, 10), through which an article (4, 5) can be discharged from the conveying space (19, 20, 21, 22, 30, 31), that the conveying space (19, 20, 21, 22, 30, 31) can be moved between at least one unloading position (7) and at least one loading position (3), that its opening (9, 10) is located in the region of a delivery window (12) in the unloading position (7), and that the opening can be closed by the closing element at least in the unloading position. The invention also relates to a process for operating such an apparatus.

Abstract: A self-locking deal tray for use in a countertop and a transaction barrier. The deal tray has a frame with at least a partially open top and can be secured to the countertop. The deal tray further has a movable receptacle that is movably connected to the front face of the frame. The movable receptacle can then move between lowered position away from the barrier above it and a raised position against the barrier above it. Finally, the deal tray includes a support movably attached to the bottom of the movable receptacle that can be moved between a supine position and a standing position, respectfully corresponding to the receptacle's lowered and raised positions.

Abstract: A reactive armor structure having an outer layer and a reactive element adjacent to and integral with the outer layer is provided. The reactive element provides an amount of support to the outer layer effective to restrain movement of the outer layer and to delay fracture of the outer layer when the outer layer is impacted by a projectile.

Abstract: Pass through interlock systems for sanitized environments or "clean rooms" are disclosed which allow for the transfer of objects from outside the sanitized environment without introducing undesirable contaminants therein. The system comprises a frame, box like structure juxtaposed on the back end of a frame, two doors oppositely disposed to each other, an electric mortise lock with solenoid or electric motor, first and second sensors and an electronic controller with power source, that is programmed to automatically lock one door when the opposite door is opened.

Abstract: A free-standing, portable retail merchandising unit having improved merchandise display features.

Abstract: An anti-jamming device for a security screen arrangement, in which a security screen is able to be rapidly fired from a rest position to an upper position at which passage of a person from one side of the screen to another is not possible, includes sensors for detecting whether the screen is at the rest position or the upper position. The device also includes a valve for lowering a screen when it does not reach the upper position, due to the screen having been jammed, and for reactivating the firing of the screen. The screen may be repeatedly fired until the obstruction is cleared.

Abstract: The invention relates to a protective device against aggression.The protective device against aggression is designed to close the free space situated above the tray of a counter or cash-desk rapidly from below upwards.The closing means comprise a tray movable upwards from a lowered position in which it is substantially horizontal to a raised vertical position blocking said space.
